Chapter 499 Long Time No See
Miss Leigh Ann was already waiting at the school gate.
Seeing Rosalie bringing the boys over, Miss Leigh Ann smiled and greeted, “Miss Jacobs, long time nosee.”
Rosalie smiled politely. “I’ve been busy with work recently, did Lucian and Nox give you any trouble?”
Considering the boys’ abnormal behavior this morning, Rosalie could only think that it was becausethey did something wrong at school and were afraid that she would find out about it.
Unexpectedly, Miss Leigh Ann shook her head. “They have always been very good. Not only do theynot cause trouble, but they even help me take care of other children sometimes. I would like to thankyou for raising such sensible little boys.”
Rosalie pursed her lips and smiled, she looked down at the boys beside her, her heart filled withdoubts.
The boys opened their eyes wide and looked at her innocently.
Rosalie could not pick anything out after a long time so she could only retract her gaze.
“Auntie!”
A sweet, childlike voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
Rosalie subconsciously turned around and looked over, only to see Estie dressed in a cute princessdress with her hair permed into woolly curls. Her fat, little baby face was red as she ran toward her onshort legs.novelbin
Seeing the little girl’s hair, Rosalie could not help but freeze for a moment before subconsciouslyleaning over to catch the little girl. She hesitantly asked her, “Estelle, what happened to your hair?”
She remembered the little girl having straight hair, who would perm such a young girl’s hair?
Estie pulled her hair and said innocently, “Grandma. Grandma said that princesses have curly hair!”
Melody also knew about the kindergarten’s anniversary celebration along with the fact that the little girlwill be in a stage play. Spirits high, she gave the little girl a perm.
Byron was too lazy to argue with her over such trivial matters, so he let her go.
Hearing the little girl mention Melody, Rosalie’s heart sank slightly. She stood up calmly and took a stepback to distance herself from the little girl.
Estie noticed Rosalie’s estrangement and tilted her head in confusion. There was also somedisappointment on her little face.
Rosalie felt a slight tingling in her heart, but she still steeled her heart and said nothing else.
Suddenly thinking of something, Rosalie looked up and glanced behind the little girl.
Sure enough, she saw Byron who was making his way over here.
The man was wearing an expensive, haute couture suit as he walked over to them with a ramrodposture. His eyes fell heavily on her and Estie.
Faced with the man’s gaze, Rosalie was slightly shocked, and she subconsciously clenched thechildren’s hands. She turned around, wanting to greet Miss Leigh Ann, and then lead the boys in first.Although she would have to work with Byron and Estelle sooner or later, right now, she just wanted tohide away from them for a while.
“President Lawrence.” The man had already approached them before she could say anything, and MissLeigh Ann greeted him respectfully.
Byron nodded slightly. His eyes swept past Miss Leigh Ann and fell on Rosalie who had her backturned to him.
Rosalie felt a gaze fall upon her substantially, which made her uneasy.
“Miss Jacobs, it’s been a while.” Byron greeted meaningfully. He grabbed Estie’s little hand and walkedup to Rosalie’s side.
Hearing the man’s voice, Rosalie’s heart constricted slightly, and her mind fell into chaos. The scenefrom before of her parting from the man on bad terms and the intimate scene from sleeping Beautyappeared in her mind alternately.
For a moment, Rosalie did not know how to face the man beside her.
